The TX-NR1008 is an
upper-mid-range A/V powerhouse designed to give you maximum set-up
flexibility in the home. Its 9.2 speaker channels let you enjoy a
multichannel source in your main room, plus powered audio in two
other rooms. Or you can use the extra channels to take full
advantage of the new surround dimensions of Audyssey DSX™ and Dolby®
Pro Logic® IIz. Other processing highlights include DTS-HD Master
Audio™ and Dolby® TrueHD for pristine lossless audio on Blu-ray Disc,
and HDMI® upscaling of all video sources to 1080p with Faroudja DCDi
Cinema™. As a network A/V receiver compatible with Windows® 7 and
DLNA, the TX-NR1008 lets you stream audio from your PC or from
internet radio channels such as vTuner and Last.fm. Set up and
calibration are easy and accurate, thanks to ISF video calibration,
a new overlaid graphical on-screen display, and Audyssey room
correction and equalization. Bi-amping capability and a smorgasbord
of the latest connections complete what is an outstanding
entertainment package.
